    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,109 views

    The would-be servant of God, whether waiting at table, ushering at the door, distributing to the poor, or preaching the gospel, must be of a blameless character and reputation.

    THE CHRISTIAN CHARACTER OF STEPHEN THE MARTYR. Acts 6:1-15.

    This is not for the faint of heart: If all you want is a blessing this is not the message for you, this is only for those who want God to take over, to consume them.

  • Stephen, Love And Truth

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 21, 2013

    St Stephen's sermon was very aggressive, and would not really be expected to work, but his core truth is real.
